Does anybody have an experience of home birth with a toddler

My first born will be just 3 years old when I'll be in labor with my second baby. If all health indicator are good I want a home birth with my toddler around. I'm 21 weeks now and plan to start to prepare him in about 3 weeks.
My first labor was a birth in my OB birth house and very beautiful.

Does anyone have experience of home birth with a toddler ?

Is my craving weird?

Just tried to explain to my husband and mother why mango and smoked paprika is amazing but they’ve both said that’s weird!

What is happening to me 33weeks pregnant

For the past 3 weeks my poo has been quite soft and much more smelly than normal, I have constantly been suffering with eggy burps and severe tummy ache almost like trapped gas. Any advice on what to do thank you .

4D scan 🩷

My daughter is so excited to be a big sister so I thought she’d like to see her on the screen.

Little lady was very difficult yesterday 😂 she kept facing away, and when she did face towards us she either kept a hand up to her face or pushed right into my uterine wall 🤦🏼‍♀️ so she had a squished nose.
But, they did rescan me 30mins after my initial one to try and get better photos.
It was cute seeing her feet crossed over.

I did go back to Window to the Womb again to see if they’d be better this time and they were much more friendly.
When I went for an early scan, they were not good but I believe in 2nd chances.

Did you have less midwife appointments with your 2nd pregnancy?

The last midwife appointment I had was back in March (I think) and then I was told by the midwife that I wouldn't be seen until I am 28 weeks, I believe I was 14 or 15 weeks at the time. I do have an appointment for June 22, however I just have some concerns. I told the midwife in March that I want a VBAC and she told me I need to have a consultation at the hospital when I am 28 weeks, she also said I need my RSV jab and whooping cough by 28 weeks. On top of that I need an appointment for my glucose test because diabetes runs in my family. I haven't received word on any of that, I also don't have an assigned midwife as mine left to go work in the hospitals. Already I have had to reach out to the midwife number because the midwife I saw had my due date wrong and that took me 5-6 days to get an answer back to get it fixed. Just worried about having to do everything all at once and it being too much and overwhelming... As no one would want to have to do the RSV jab, whooping cough and glucose test all within the same week or two. Just wondering if this is normal?

Advice

I’m currently 36+4

Just looking for advice on symptoms I’ve been having since last night.

Constant back and hip pain
Tightening on and off that lasted 2 hours last night
Nausea
Regular sharp shooting pains in my pubic area

Not sure what to do. I have been taking paracetamol and tried a hot shower.
